A recent study by Columbia University's Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse found a pronounced difference in future drug use between kids who used marijuana and those who did not. It revealed that teens who smoke marijuana are 85 times more likely to use cocaine than those who do not. This means the odds of using other drugs increases with the increased frequency of marijuana smoking."
Here's another.
The Eagle Forum stated in its brochure titled "Facts You Need to Know About ... Marijuana," from its website (accessed Mar. 2006):
"Since THC is continually in the body, the 'high' from pot gradually diminishes, and so pot smokers usually take other drugs to get a kick.
Nevertheless, they continue to smoke pot as they use the other drugs, because they think pot makes them 'feel good all the time.' Most pot smokers drink alcohol heavily, and many become so confused that they take cocaine and heroin....
Not all pot smokers use cocaine or heroin, but almost no one takes these drugs who has not used marijuana extensively.
Without pot smoking, there would be no demand for cocaine or heroin."
I sent 2 other sites on a prior post that disappeared. LOLOL
We can do this all day. I don't want to argue their opinion, I wanted to argue yours. That's a debate.
Bottom line is that my last post is just like the "cited" source you linked. It is a agenda filled source that is trying to get pot legalized, my site is trying to keep it illegal. Either way I really don't care. I just wanted a debate because it is fun and I have kids growing up that smoke pot and I am concerned for them. Just as concerned as if they drank, which they do.
